Altering, or demolishing, a listed building

It is a criminal offence to carry out works to a listed building without prior listed building consent - even if you didn't know that the building was listed. Search for listed buildings. If you own a listed building and plan to; demolish it, or alter or extend it in any way which affects its character as a building of architectural or historic interest, you may require Listed Building Consent.
